HORDESHUNTINGHOMES In the Fields and Forests of the Evergreen State-Turner on Woman Suffrage-Snohomish's Bike Path-Opening Colville Reservation-Buckley Mill to Reopen-Skagit County Fair-Columbia River Open to the Sea. The Puyallup Chronicle says that Carey L.

Wanted—The missing link between wheat and silver. A liberal reward given to any one who will produce it, dead or alive. Address the Bureau of Curios, Lincoln, Nebraska—Sultan Journal. The discovery of gold near Tacoma proved no discovery at all. The same old story, everything that Tacoma takes hold of pans out in an unsatisfactory manner. Wake up, you sleepy beings, and see the world move. Yakima papers report the accidental death of Hon. George S. Taylor, a noted pioneer of that county. For the past thirty-four years he has been staying by Yakima county and had accumulated a fortune in cattle and lands. His death is mourned by the entire community. The opening of the north half of the Colville Indian reservation October 10th next promises to be a great time for those looking for homes. Before it is time to make the mad rush hundreds of home seekers will doubtless be ready and waiting to locate a clafm. Plans for the Skagit county fair have begun to take definite shape and it will be but a short time now before active work will begin on it, has been gleaned from the Mt. Vernon Argus. Good county fairs are splendid mediums for advertising purposes, and Skagit county is in need of just such an advertisement. And now comes the Sidney Independent declaring that Kitsap county has excellent gubernatorial timber growing wild there, and can be had for the mere asking on the part of the Republican state convention. The same report would doubtless hold good with every other county in the state. P. J. Smith is in Seattle this week. Rumor hath it that Pete is making connections with the political exchange and laying a few new wires in outlying districts. A judicious wire or two in this vicinity will be found very useful before all the campaign clouds have cleared away.—Issaquah Independent. It is estimated, so says the Tacoma News, that there will be not less than 600,000 immigrants from Europe, who will seek homes in this country during the present year. If that be true, then Washington state should get the bulk of them, or get more than any other state, because it has more good farming lands, which they can utilize for homes. From the similarity of editorials in many of the state exchanges it historical Society would appear that the shears are more often used by the brethren than the pencil, but why not, since it takes less time and mental labor? And then again, no one but the exchange editor ever sees those little irregularities, and he had as well keep still about them. A sermon in a nutshell can be found in the following excerpt from the Adams County News: "Unless something is done this fictitious prosperity is in danger of becoming permanent." It is barely possible that already is has made up its mind to become permanent; in fact, it has, and that is what is giving the Bryanites so confounded much trouble. Paul Mohr, according to the Colfax Gazette, has about completed his gigantic undertaking of opening the Columbia river to the sea. He will begin operating by June 15th and will be able to handle the entire fall wheat output. It will be a great saving to the wheat growers, as well as other farmers, along that famous watercourse. What can be the matter with the editor of the Vineland Journal? Did he fail to get a postoffice at the hands of Senator Wilson, or is he receiving his daily bread from the Ankeny senatorial mills? There seems to be no good and sufficient reason for its tirade of billingsgate against Mr. Wilson unless he happens to be in one or the other aforesaid political conditions. The recent influx of Japanese, in wholesale numbers, into the Puget Sound country has given the newspapers much to talk about for the past week, with more yet to follow. This matter should be widely discussed, and discussed to that extent that, if there are no immigration laws at present to prevent their coming into this country, there will be at an early date. It may be that the reason Senator Turner has always been safe on the "woman suffrage" question in this state, was because he felt absolutely certain it would never be a reality. If the women of this state had the right of suffrage they would certainly vote against Senator Turner to a woman, simply because he resorts to means of carrying elections that women do not stand for a single minute. If Hon. S. G. Cosgrove is not nominated for governor by the next Republican state convention it will be no fault of the East Washingtonian published at Pomeroy. Sam Cosgrove is a good man, and he has many friends in other places in this state besides Garfield county. Should King county not be able to land this place, it is more than probable that she would throw her forces to Sam Cosgrove for governor. The Buckley Lumber Company plant, which has been idle for some months, will start to work about May 1st, so thinks the Buckley Banner. This property was once owned by State Senator Sargent, but legal complications arose, and, since that time, it has been lying idle. It will be operated by the Pages, and they have expended not less than $10,000 for new machinery and repairs, and promise to begin operating it by the above date, May 1st. Already the Auburn Argus has picked its candidate for sheriff of King county in the person of Senator John Wooding. It would appear from the tone of the Argus last week that it does not support Mr. Wooding because it loves Mr. Van de Vanter less, but wholly from circumstances over which it has no control. That state of affairs often happens to us poor newspaper men, Brother Rankin, so do not feel bad over your awkward political predicament. Puget Sound People Going to Spokane, Butte, Helena, Minneapolis, St. Paul, or the East, will enjoy the luxurious case afforded by the Northern Pacific's new North Coast Limited, in service on and after April 29.

'EVERY BODY'S FRIEND' Made a Decided Hit and Was a Winner. THE STUDENT ASSEMBLY Makes Some Important Changes The Wave is to Be Managed by the Assembly - Senior Class Commencement Preparations Progressing Nicely - Junior Annual Soon Ready for Distribution. The Dramatic Club of the University of Washington gave their second annual play last Friday evening. The play is entitled "Everybody's Friend," and to say that the Dramatic Club interpreted it well would hardly be doing justice to the leading amateur artists who took part. It was simply magnificent from beginning to end, and the audience showed its hearty appreciation of their efforts. "Everybody's Friend" is a three-act comedy and has had great success in many of the leading Eastern cities. The cast of characters was as follows: Felix Featherly, Clarence M. Larson; Frank Icebrook, Worth Densmore; Major Wellington De Boots, Alfred Giles; Trap, Ed McCammon; Eugenia Featherly, Elizabeth B. Hancock; Julia Swandown, Edna Rob- ertson; Auerlia Mandeville De Boots, Florence Pearson; Fannie, Sylvester. The music for the occasion was furnished by the university orchestra. About all the students and their friends attended the performance. Then, there were a large number from town also present, so that the club scored a financil success. At a meeting of the student assembly on Friday of last week two very important amendments were made to the constitution of that "august body." One of these empowers the assembly to elect its officers two weeks before the close of the spring term, instead of at the beginning of the autumn term. The other grants the assembly the right of choosing the manager of the Pacific Wave. Heretofore this important personage has been appointed by the publication committee, to whom it was his duty to report occasionally on the financial condition of that organ. The Senior class is progressing nicely with its preparations for commencement day entertainments. At a meeting of the class on Thursday the various committees having in charge the arrangements for that day reported, and some careless senior has permitted it to leak out that the class intends to introduce new as well as unheard-of hits and jokes upon the faculty, regents and students. The class has among its membership some excellent material and no one need fear but that it will make the class day exercises interesting to all. After the patience of the factually and students have been sorely tried in waiting for the Junior annual, it is now reported that that publication will appear about the end of the week. It will be handsomely bound in heavy cloth board and will bear the university colors—purple and gold. It will contain about forty full pages of beautiful half-tone engravings, histories of various student organizations and fraternities. The writing has been done almost entirely by the Junion class and is in a somewhat humorous style. Many of the leading members of the factually have been cartooned by the student artists. On the whole it will far surpass anything that has ever appeared at the university. One of the most handsome books ever issued by the Northern Pacific company has just been sent out. It is certainly the most splendid review of the Northwest that has been issued by any one for years. It is not only replete with Northwest information, but it is likewise pleasingly diversified with historical reminiscences. “Wonderland,” the title of the neat new book, is certainly a wonder in its get up and is deserving of the very highest praise. No book of its kind has ever been issued by any other railroad company in the Northwest. Those Going To The Lewiston, Buffalo Hump, Big Bend, Coeur d'Alene or Kotenai regions can enjoy the new North Coast Limited with its electric lights, steam heat, wide vestibules and Observation Cars, after April 29, and make close connections on the Northern Pacific at Spokane for all morning trains. NEWSPAPERS LINING UP Tom Dempsy's Daily to Beat the Piper's Daily in the Seattle Market. "Lining up for the coming campaign," is not confined solely to the man who has an itching palm for an office, but it is likewise true of the Seattle newspapers and newspaper men. Within the past week some notable changes in the editorial rooms of the Times have transpired. Tom McGill, who has been city editor since the retiring of O. M. Moore from that position, has been fired and he is now in Tacoma on one of the papers in the capacity of reporter. J. A. Costello, who is said to be one of the best reporters in the city, is now city editor of the Times instead of McGill. The Post-Intelligencer has also lost a splendid man from its reportorial staff in the person of D. K. Larimer. Dave left the Times about a year ago, where he was getting $10 per week, and accepted a position on the P.-I. at $18 per week, but the Colonel could not do without Dave, and so he has succeeded in getting him to come back and is now giving him $20 per week. Here is an instance where quitting and getting hired over paid and paid well. Unless the Pipers get their papers in the Seattle field pretty soon, it appears that they will have another daily to buck, for it is being whispered about the streets that T. H. Dempsey, who for years ran a daily and subsequently a weekly paper in Seattle, has a daily proposition up his sleeve and has money to help him pull it out at an early date. It was positively given out one-day this week that Dempsey would certainly start an evening paper in Seattle in the very near future, and that he had already been making contracts with well-known business houses for advertising space. The consolidation of the Saturday Mail and Herald was the desideratum for the two papers. Practically speaking, they were of one opinion before they consolidated, and there was nothing else for them to do but consolidate, that is, if they proposed to do business instead of cut each other's throats. Messrs. Way and Hampton are rustlers from the word go, and there is no doubt but that the new concern will put out one of the most readable papers in the city, and likewise one of the best paying ones. The Seattle Bee, owned by D. W. Griffin, in its last issue promises to be on hand regularly every Monday morning, by which it is understood that it is now on a business basis and will not have to get out this week and try to get out next, with no apparent hope of success. All of these changes show very conclusively that the newspapers are rapidly lining up for the coming campaign, and a battle royal from the newspaper forts can be looked for. AFRO - AMERICANISM Told in Short and Pithy Paragraphs. THE NEGRO JOURNALIST Is Spreading the News of His Race.

Mississippi has 114 colored ex-confederate pensioners on its pay roll Wonder when they have last been to the polls to vote? Robert Thompson, the wealthiest Negro in the vicinity of Carlslea, Ky., died recently, leaving an estate valued at from $50,000 to $60,000. The Walter Lippincott prize of $300 for the best figure painting exhibited by an American artist in the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts was awarded the gifted Afro-American artist, Henry O. Tanner. Miss Estelle Hawkins, of Cincinnati, Ohio, has been elected class poet by the members of her class in Walnut Hill High School. She is the first person of color whose true worth has thus been honored. A bill is now under consideration in the New York legislature providing that no person shall be refused admission to any public school on account of race or color and repealing the law authorizing separate schools for colored children. John F. Dorsey, of Washington, copyrighted his patent, a system for burglar alarms. He is well up in electricity, having for several years been in the employ of an electrical company. His invention will make a valuable acquisition to the Negroes' exhibit, if sent to Paris, France. Within the last three years the Knights of Pythias of Ohio have divided over $12,000 among the widows and orphans of its deceased members throughout the state. Already this year $3,000 has been disbursed, with a surplus of $1,000 remaining in their treasury. A list of about 1,100 books and pamphlets by colored authors has been secured by Mr. Daniel Murry, of the library of Congress. These will be used in the Afro-American exhibit at the Paris exposition. Mr. Stoddard has been requested by Mr. Murry to make a note of this fact in a future edition of his Cyclopedia of American Literature. The undertaking firm of Russell & Gordon, of St. Louis, Mo., is the largest of its kind in America owned and conducted by colored men. They have in their stables some of the most blooded of Kentucky's animals, six of the finest rubber-tired carriages, two up-to-date hearses, and their drivers are always dressed in suitable livery. Russell & Gordon are members of the City Undertaking Association and employ regularly twelve men, paying over one hundred dollars per week for labor. J. H. Tucker, Company H, 24th infantry, writes from the Philippines that the question, "What shall we do with our Negro graduates?" has been answered by the Spanish war, and that their place and opportunity in life is in the Philippines. He further says: "This is certainly a fine field for young Negroes, both as teachers LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON APR 28 1952 N and preachers. Thousands of Filipino children are growing up throughout this island as wild as deer, and have not the least idea that there is any other church than the Catholic." Mr. S. Coleridge Taylor, the son of an African father and an English mother, is today the man before the public's eye in the musical circles of London. Mr. Taylor has set to music Longfellow's great poem, "Hiawatha." This he has done in three sections: "Hiawatha's Wedding Feast," "The Death of Minnehaha," and "Hiawatha's Departure." The newspaper criticisms were favorable indeed, and it is said that the three selections contain some of the truest and best music of the present century. Concord, North Carolina, has a new establishment in the way of cotton mills. Warren Coleman, a Negro and one of the industrial leaders of that section of the country, after much work on the mill scheme has succeeded in forming a company, and they now have in operation a first-class, up-to-date cotton mill. The enterprise has attracted much attention, owing to the fact that it originated in the mind of a Negro and is owned and conducted by Negroes. The mill contains 5,200 spindles, 140 looms and 22 cards, besides other necessary machinery. An excellent lithograph of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute of Tuskegee, Ala., has been sent cut by that famous institution. There are fifty-seven buildings on the grounds, all of which were designed and constructed by pupils of that institution under the direction of their worthy president, Booker F. Washington. The picture is a reminder of what, worth and intelligence can do—a grand monument, as it were, to the success of Negro production. Every Afro-American home would be better ornamented had it one of the pictures on its walls. The sum of 60c sent to Mr. Washington will secure the picture, post-paid. A Negro during a recent fire at a flat house in New York distinguished himself and proved that the Negro's bravery is not "born of desperation only." He was on his way to work and detected the fire, which soon gained much headway. On the second floor a man with his six little children stood completely cut off from all escape by the flames. This Negro, M. S. Anderson by name, with two passersby ran into the building next door and on up to the third floor. With his two companions holding his legs, Anderson swung head downward, and swaying his body backward and forward managed to reach the children as the father held them up to him. And all were rescued from a horrible and speedy death. (Roslyn Miner.) The entertainment given to raise the traveling expenses of the pastor of the A. M. E. Church as a delegate to the General Conference to be held in Columbus, Ohio, May 7, 1900, was a grand success both financially and as a literary effort. The Silver Leaf Club, an auxiliary of the church, furnished the refreshments, and the Literary and Musical Club furnished the literary and musical treat. Both were perfect. The net proceeds amounted to more than $60. The thanks of the pastor and church is gratefully returned to all who contributed to the grand success. The Seattle friends of Rev. Bailey are quite pleased to learn that he will soon leave for the General Conference of his church at Columbus, and that the good folk of Roslyn sent him there in proper shape, financially and otherwise. Rev. S. J. Collins will also be a delegate to the General Conference, and he and Rev. Bailey will leave together. Mining Men Going, to the Kootenai country Rossland, Coeur d'Alene country, or Buffalo Hump, will find the North Coast Limited on the Northern Pacific just the thing. In service after April 29.

New York’s Democracy is said to be infayor of Bryan for president. ‘That perhaps is true of all of those New York Democrats who do not fayor some one else for president: and more of them, we suspect, favor the some one else candidate than do Bryan. Editor Mays of the Pomeroy In. dependent is a happy father, though he has extensively lopped over “into the shady side of life. Perseverance is a jewel. He who will work an wait is always certain of success Sweet dreams, old man, you are quite deserving of them. Governor Taylor’s part of the po. litieal circus in Kentucky is appar ently petering out, and in view ot the fact, the governor himself is quietly resting on his political oar: in asister state, where Kentucky ex- tradition papers will not be honored Such is the life of the Southern Re- publican politician. Mark Hanna, in a harmony garb. is quite a new and unexpected rol: for the noted Ohio politician, whose political wig-wam has been the storn center for the past. five years, around which all classes and conditions o politicians have violently as well a: repeatedly surged. Here is another freak that one meets in the political arena. So frightfully fatal has the bu- bonie plague become in Sidney. Australia, that the citizens thereof are fleeing from the city by the thou. sands. ‘This country cannot main- tain too strict a quarantine between those Oceanic islands and her own shores, or that dreadful disease will soon make its appearance in her Const eities Blethenism continues to be the most pronounced feature about the Seattle Times. Here is truly a great family journal that is always fo “me and my wife, my son John and his wife, ug four and no more.” Foi the newspaper editor to discuss his family affairs in his own paper seem: to us rather commonplace and verg: ing on vulgarism. How about it Colonel? Southern Republicans, who neve elect a state or a county official, de more wrangling over offices and bolt more conventions for “principles sake” than any of those sections o! the North, East and West that never elect a Democratic officer only by accident. Peace! be still! you fel- lows down in Dixie until” you do something for your country. Lord Kitchner, the English mili- tary idol of the Boer war, like our own Admiral Dewey, of Manila Bay fame, promises to surrender to an ambitious woman, who, like the onc to whom Dewey surrendered, ha: been there before and only got away by the aid of the divorce mills. Kitchner, like Dewey, will, no doubt, hefore he has been with’ her long, wish that he had not done it. ‘There seems to be no better evi- dence that good times are general in this state, even extending to the newspapers, than: that the editors of the various papers, who have remain- ed single for years owing to the fact that times were too hard to get mar- ried, are now marrying up at a rapid rate. Quite remarkable, too, this dis- ease is as prevalent among Demo: Pop editors as among - Republicans It, however, isa good thing, fellows, #0 push it along. Let the business houses of every description in this city not overlook the fact that the Sunday closing law will be rigidly enforced after the 1st of May, unless the plans of the Good Government people miscarry. If the violators of the law are not pun- ished, it will be no fault of the Good Government people, for they pro- pose to accomplish their purpose in this matter, even if they have to re- sort to the highest couris of the land to do so. A Nebraska man has sent an egg to a congressman on which the ini- tials “W. J. B.” are found. This, he declares, was the condition of the egg when first laid, and he intreprets it as a prophecy that Mr. Bryan will be the next president. It might mean, Mr. Man, that Bryan is a gos- ling and unfit to be president. But, come to think, perhaps Mr. Bryan has taken to laying souvenir eggs as another means of cheap political ad- vertisement. Verily! verily! “the world do move.” Republican opposition to the Me- Kinley administration, this paper is forced to believe, after much delib- eration on the subject, emanates either directly from the editorial rooms of Democratic newspapers or from Democratic committee rooms. Republican disintegration pales into insignificance when it comes to a show-down at the polls. We believe that McKinley will carry even more states this year than he did in 1896, and why should he not, sinee he has made the country bloom like a green bay tree in the four years he has been president of the United States? Quite a number of aggravated as saults on little girls, four years and upwards of age, have been com- mitted in this state within the past two weeks by men past the half a century notch in years. All of the assaulfers wore pale faces, not even disguised as “black brutes,” and, owing to that fact, it has not oe- curred to the citizens that any of those crime-steeped old devils were or are deserving of summary punish- ment from the lynchers’ limb. ‘The color of the rapist’s face in this coun- try always covers a multitude of sina If any man or human “being” has flattered himself into the belief that the citizens of King county. are 50 carried away with him as to permit him to use -the entire Republican party herein as a trading commodity by which he can fleece millionaire senatorial politicians out of money, that he can be a “high roller,” then he is fooling himself, and fooling himself most confoundedly bad. Your game is checkmated, and it will continue so, staf as many daily papers as you will or may. You, of Oregon blackmailing fame, is a beautiful aspect to run King county polities. Well, we guess nit! it is enough to make the immortal Lincoln turn in his grave to have his name and memory desecrated by an aggregation of political truncoats who have styled themselves during the past four years as Free Silver Re- publicans, to now adopt the name of Lineoln Republicans. — Lincolnism gave us our Grant, Garfield and Me Kinley, who defended the honor and name of Lincoln on the fields of a hundred battles, at the loss of a hundred thousand lives, and not mez who use his name as a cloak for pelf and plunder and_ self-aggrandize- ment. No such desecration or poli tical vandalism ever before besmirch- ed the fair name of the savior of our great republic. Nebraska has been dubbed by the Post-Intelligencer as “Cranks’ Rest,” and, from the number of political cranks that have flocked thereto dur- ing its reign of crankdom, it would appear that there is more truth than poetry in the appellation. But though it is “Cranks’ Rest,” of which very many have taken timely advan- tage, the prince of cranks, -who founded the institution in Nebraska, neither rests there nor anywhere elze very long at a time. He continues to “continent trot,” in the hope of mak- ing Washington City the chief cranks’ rest, in the mean time using Nebraska as a base of operation. Not <0, though, Bill Boy, for it’s not in the cards. Col. Colson, the Kentuckian, who suceeded in landing “triplets,” in an affair of Kentucky honor some time since, has been acquitted by the jury for that act of “true manliness.” ‘The trial lasted four days, but the jury was only eighteen minutes in reaching a verdict after it had re- tired. The man who shoots and kills in Kentucky is more often pub- licly commended than legally con- demned, and it has proven doubly so in Col. Colson’s case. A “crack shot” is always the hero of every place and oceasion, and his friendship is earn- estly courted by ladies and gentle: fiengone anil alike. v State Senator Clapp, of Port ‘Townsend incidentally learned while in New York City the other week that Seattle was the greatest city on the Pacific coast. ‘That was news tc the gentleman, who has not been able to see but three places in the state, Tacoma, Walla Walla and Port ‘Townsend, the greatest of which was Walla Walla, so he eame back to Se- attle on his way home and slobbered all over the city through the daily press; but Seattle is dead on to yout little game, Senator Clapp, ‘and knows you are only climbing into the band wagon. Massachusetts citizens do _ not agree with Granny Hoar on his Phil- ippine ideas, but they nevertheless have the utmost publie respect for him, and Rev. Hoyt, the cheap no- toriety hunter, found that out when he made an attempt to denounce the distinguished old senator down in Massachusetts one day last week. In our opinion, Senator Hoar’s opinion on the expansion question is a falla- cious opinion, but he has as much right to his opinion as any one else has to his or hers, and though tha’ has to his or hers, and though that differs from everybody else’s opinion, still he is no more deserving of dis- respect for that thun the whole world is for its. Every man has a God- given right to his opinion, or that is what all American boys are taught. Rev. Sam Jones has recently been doing a bit of deciphering as to the political situation on the presidential question, and the excerpt below is the final result of that deciphering: “Mark Hanna has more sense than Jones of Arkansas, and the Republi- can party ten dollars to the Demo- rats’ one, and I have looked on the procession long enough to know be- fore the race is run that brains and money are the fastest nags that ever went on the track. No nation ever changed its polities and swapped politicians in times of great prosper- ity” Rey. Sam always talks from the head, heart and pocketbook, when he does talk, and he never fails to hit the nail on the head. In this in- stance he personally knows what he is talking about. This country has two living ex: presidents—respectively, a Demo: crat, Grover Cleveland, and a Repub. lican, Benjamin Harrison—and strange to say, neither of them is in political harmony with his party Politically speaking, Mr. Cleveland has nothing in common with Wil liam Jennings Bryan, who will most certainly be the Democratie nominee for president, and he will do all in his power to prevent his election. Mr. Harrison is by no means in sym- pathy with President MeKinley’s foreign policy, and especially his Puerto Rican customs bill, but, un- like Mr. Cleveland, he will support President McKinley after he has been duly nominated by the Repub- lican convention at Philadelphia. Tt is very regrettable that men who haye been honored by the people in the highest, drop into the idea that they are the whole shooting match, when it comes to statesmanship. COMING NATIONAL EVENTS.

The Pie-maker heard a number of prominent politicians talking on the streets this week, and they freely admitted that they had all the Piperdom that they wanted, and proposed to stand. "The political fight of Ankeny and Wilson must be eliminated from King county politics, and that brace of Ankeny strikers, who are evidently using his money to continue corrupting the political affairs in King county to its detriment, must and will be sat down upon like a ton of bricks. The old-line Republicans in King county are quite able to think and act for their own best interest without their aid, and if their aid continues to keep up the political disturbance that it has for the past two years, then the sooner their aid is dispensed with the better for King county. We need no more political bosses, and we will not have them." --- Speaking about political bosses reminds the Pie-maker of what a well-known old-time politician said in this connection the other day: "I have watched things very closely since I have been in King county, and that is no short time, and for a general thing I find that political bosses do not last very long, in other words, they are short-lived. The greatest political boss that King county has ever had was Leigh Hunt, who ruled for six years with an iron hand, but he went to pieces like a house on fire, not only as a political boss, but financially as well. Other political bosses, who have prior and since appeared in the political arena, did not last over two years. With the aid of the Post-Intelligencer and thousands of dollars of Turner-Ankeny money the Pipers managed to ride rough shod over the Republicans of King county for two short years, but they have gone the ways of the world, and if they have not yet quite gone, they are heading that way very rapidly. This 'brace' possibly lived longer than they otherwise would have, owing to the fact that they kept on their string a man, who in the past, has been very popular with the masses and was content with holding an office, and this man those fellows used as a political stool-pigeon. It will be a good while, in my opinion, before another boss comes to the front, and King county is the gainer thereby." --- The fight for political supremacy in King county among the Democrats is equally as formidable as that among the Republicans. The Pie-maker sometimes talks politics to Democrats as well as Republicans, and this he did one day this week, and elicited the following from a well-known Democrat, who figures quite conspicuously in Democratic circles: "Of course you are not interested in the Democratic scrap in this county, Mr. Pie-maker, for you Republicans have troubles of your own, but I want to say to you that the Godwin faction is going to win in the coming Democratic scrap two to one. Lee Hart may be an astute politician, but mark these words, he has run up against the real thing in bucking J. W. Godwin. Never think for a minute that the Godwinites, as you have been pleased to dub them, are allowing the grass to grow under their feet in this fight, and they will win hands down, the Review to the contrary notwithstanding. --- In reply to a question as to whether the appointing of War Horse White as supreme judge would strengthen or weaken the Godwinites, the following reply came: "It will strengthen them. It is true that White was not in factional sympathy with the Godwinites, nor were others who aspired to the honor, and the selecting of White, who could hardly be said to be in full sympathy with the Democratic party, owing to his rabid statements on expansion, has made some very sore spots among our opposition, and those men and their friends will now help to turn the faction down that was responsible for White's appointment. You yourself remember when Mr. White was so outspoken on the expansion question that it was very questionable as to whether he would support Bryan or McKinley, and his resignation as a member of the national Democratic committee from this state was asked for by Democrats, who were Democrats under all conditions. You just watch and wait, and you will see what I here predict will come out as true as gold." The Pie-maker notes that the Piper-Ankney club with a McKin- ley mask on has begun to make an aggressive fight to continue to keep up a political disturbance among the Republicans in this city and county. Within the week past a large banner has been hung across Second avenue advising the people that the McKinley club is the only Republican organization in Seattle that Republicans can attend and be in the swim. Money is said to make the mare go, but unless the men furnishing the money to make these asses run put a stop to it, they will hear "something drap," and "drap" awfully hard, before another year is with us. --- Candidates for the various county offices have begun to shoot up like mushrooms, both in the city and in the county. That's right, fellows, do not be afraid to let the community know that you are candidates for an office. Do not try to slip in by the twist of the wrist or the wrist might twist the wrong way and let the other fellow in. Announce yourselves and let your candidacy be discussed and you will in all human probability fare much better—that is, if you are worthy of the place you seek. --- It is learned incidentally that there will be not less than a baker's dozen of candidates for the position of county autor, half as many for that of county treasurer, equally as many for the position of county clerk, quite as many for sheriff, and a dozen or more for prosecuting attorney, with but two in the field thus far for county assessor. This enumeration, however, is confined solely to the Republican side of the house. The long list of candidates for superior judges was detailed last week by the Pie-maker, and with what is here said as to candidates it will be readily seen that there will be no scarcity of candidates next fall for every place on the ticket. A nomination is almost equal to an election this year, think a number of the Republicans, hence this wild scramble to get a nomination on the Republican ticket. --- On reading the report of the senate committee turning W. A. Clark, of Montana, out of the United States senate, to which he flagrantly bought his way, by corrupting votes enough to assure his election, it is not to be wondered at that the Republican delegates to the next national convention from this state passed a resolution to the effect that a plank be put in the next national Republican platform that congress submit an amendment to the various states, to be voted on by the people, "that United States senators be elected by direct vote of the people." Here is one reform that is sadly needed, and the sooner it becomes a law the sooner will senatorial corruption cease. Not a single United States senator for some years past elected from a Western state, but what a public scandal followed, and either an investigation or a theratened one was inculded by the legislature electing him. Corruption, bribery and all-round political scudgery have become so bold and nefarious in connection with the election of a United States senator that the members of legislatures in many instances, make no bones of announcing that they are for that man in whom there is the most in it for them. This is a sad, sad state of affairs and a rather gloomy picture to draw of cultured civilization, but, alas! it seems only too true. The election of United States senators by the direct vote of the people would to some extent obviate this condition of affairs. --- What has happened in Montana in regards to electing a United States senator promises to be repeated in the state of Washington, if Ankeny-Piper methods continue to prevail. In the interest of the Republican party this wholesale corruption of voters in one way or another for senatorial purposes should cease to be practiced in Washington. When the Wilson-Ankeny fight was on in 1895 it was very generally understood that Mr. Ankeny put not less than $75,000 in that campaign at Olympia. Following this was the Turner senatorial campaign, in which money by the thousands was spent, and a notorious legislative scandal followed. Then came the last senatorial campaign, in which Levi Ankeny again played star, and again it is variously estimated that he spent in the neighborhood of $75,000, besides many side contributions to county central committees during the fall campaign. Now, if this gentleman is ever elected United States senator a repetition of the Senator Clark escapade can be looked for. During the last Seattle municipal campaign it was quite current comment that George Piper had $8,000 Ankeny money to further Mr. Ankeny's senatorial aspirations through the election of Tom Humes, and thus make Ankeny the political boss of the state. The Pie-maker believes it is high time to call a halt in this direction and give the bribery impetus that is gaining ground so rapidly in this state a decided setback. --- That woman on whom a $25 fine was imposed and suspended on condition she leave town at once, and not having the necessary cash to leave on, found such liberal financial friends in Judge Cann and the police officers, while her paramour was sent to jail to serve his sentence, so incensed were the authorities at the cohabitation of a white woman with a black man, did not leave town as she was ordered by the court, but continued her life of shame until she was finally picked up and sent to jail to serve her sentence. All of which shows that when men and women decide to do wrong they, like the city's "400," prefer to choose and select their own company without the assistance of even the officers of the law. The Pie-maker has not yet forgotten a police officer in this city who took special delight in venting his spleen about the "headquarters" of his contempt for the "damn niggers," and so soon as he would be relieved from duty he would make a bee-line for a house where an ebony-hued soiled dove resided, and there for hours revel in her arms. Men and women will associate with those they love best, regardless of public opinion. Seclusion, however, often helps them out of very hard holes. --- A young men's Republican club has been organized in this city which allows no one to become a member thereof that is under twenty-one years of age or over thirty. Before another week the Pie-maker would not be surprised to hear of Tom Humes taking the oath of office and becoming an active member of the club. ```markdown ``` The McKinley Club has passed resolutions deploring the importation of Japanese laborers into this country, as they have been for the past two weeks. Score one for the McKinley Club, for, thus far, it is bot stuff. ```markdown ``` The King County Republican Club is getting down to business, and with a membership now nearing 2,000 it proposes in future to look to the interest of King county, to the end that King county will not have to do all the voting and get none of the good things, either state or national.

The persistent fight that the Snohomish Tribune has made for a bicycle path thereabouts is to be commended. Cities that have already tried the bicycle paths will say "amen" to the Tribune in its efforts to have a path built about Snohomish, and perhaps some day the citizens of Snohomish will meet the citizens of Seattle and build a path between the two cities, and then, should the same path be extended to Tacoma and Olympia, it would be a highway that every citizen in the state would feel proud of.

John Bronson, who formerly lived in Newcastle, was in the city on his way home to Granite Falls last Saturday and stopped over for a few hours. Rev. Manny, who some years ago had charge of the Baptist church in this city, and who left and went to Mexico, where he seems to have done well financially, has returned and purchased himself a home in Seattle and will settle down for good. --- During the present year quite a number of the Afro-Americans of this city have purchased themselves comfortable homes. The most of them are earning good money at their avocations, and there is no reason why they should not buy homes instead of "have a good time." Mrs. Sykes and Mrs. Roy will attend the W. C. T. U. county convention, which is to be held in Kent next Tuesday. These ladies will be delegates from the Francis Harper Union, which was organized in connection with the A. M. E. church, of this city. Rev. N. D. Hartsfield, who is stationed in Tacoma, but who preaches every fourth Sunday at Newcastle, spent last Saturday in the city visiting with old friends. He contemplates, in the near future, giving Franklin at least one Sunday in every month, and thus create something of a circuit, cimprising Tacoma, Newcastle and Franklin. --- Mr. J. E. Oliver, who for years was a clerk in the Chicago postoffice and gave up his position to come West, where he married Mrs. Finney, who was running a lodging house in this city, contemplates selling out the establishment and going to the country to farm on an extensive scale. Was slangology long ago. The dust ballast on the Northern Pacific has gone to meet it. The North Coast Limited will find stone and clean gravel ballast, wide embankments, steel bridges and trestles. Amusements. SEATTLE THEATER. Probably the most important boking that Manager Howe has ever made for his theater is the one for the coming week, "Quo Vadis." The play is doubly interesting from the fact that the book from which the dramatization is taken has recently had such a popular run. Many have read the book, and those who have will surely be anxious to see the production. The company which presents the drama at the Seattle is under the direction of Charles Riggs. The scenery is by Soosman & Landis, and is said to be more faithful to the story than anything yet given to the stage. The company giving the piece is direct from the East and has been doing a big business wherever it has appeared. A car load of scenery and properties is carried for the production and nearly half a hundred people are used in the cast. Among the scenes introduced are: "The Statue Scene," "The Peristyle in the house of Petronius," "The garden of Aulus Plautus," "Nero's palace in Rome," "Interior of MBamertine prison," "The Coliseum," "The Roman ampitheater and arena," "Peristyle and view of Nero's box in the arena," "The burning of Rome and the death of Nero," "The sign of the cross and the dawn of Christianity." The company opens its three nights' engagement Sunday, April 29. Next Wednesday and Thursday evenings at the Seattle theater West's famous minstrel troupe will hold the boards. This is the largest minstrel aggregation on the road. "On the Suwanee River" comes to us at the Third Avenue theater April 29 indorsed as a play to which families may be taken with the assurance that its theme and treatment cannot but appeal to one's great emotions. The story and treatment is the old one of mortgaged estates, intrigue and the eventual clearing away of a villianous atmosphere before the sunshine of honesty and morality. There is a pathetic love story, a rich vein of humor, and permeating all is the distinct Southern flavor of the sunny climes in which the play revolves. A careful scenic investiture has been provided, a meritorious company is promised, and, taken as a whole, "On the Suance River" must prove an addition to the "home plays" of the stage. Stella Mayhew will again be the "Aunt Lindy" this season. "Shoot the Hat." Some of us can faintly remember as ancient slang, but there were no Northern Pacific North Coast Limiteds then, with electric lights and Observation Cars, running between Portland and St. Paul.
